The idea is to truly imagine the transportation system of the future. One day there will be a seamless integration of transit systems between land, sea, and air. All countries will work cooperatively to locally develop a global rapid mass transportation system for passengers and shipments of cargo. On the local level will be walkways, bike paths, roadways, busses, trolleys, elevators…and cities will be interconnected by highways, railways, seaports, and flying machines.

On the greater level there will be a high speed intercontinental rail system that circles the earth and which can safely transport passengers and cargo at hundreds of miles per hour. The veins of the rail system will reach out into every country, province, and state.

I imagine a day when people will be able to arrive at any destination on the planet just by taking the local commute. Any place of the earth will be accessible within the day and perhaps even within a matter of hours. Traveling around the globe will be easy and speedy. Tourism will be booming industry as all the money saved on permanently ending war forever will be invested into economic development around the world. Touring the cities of the earth may be as common as a weekly excursion for most people and no longer just a luxury for the rich minority.

There won’t be any bumper to bumper traffic in the future or any heavy congestion. The transportation infrastructure will be sufficient to sustain the needs of the population. There will be an adequate fleet of vehicles to transport passengers and cargo. Also measures will be implemented to reduce congestion. The employment infrastructure will operate around the clock and therefore workers won’t have to conform to a 9-5 schedule M-F and in turn diffusing passengers and reducing traffic throughout the day in order to alleviate congestion. Also, with the development of self sustainable infrastructures there will be less need to import from oversees and ship cargo around the world. Orders of packages will be immediately shipped and will arrive in the fastest time possible. With a modernized system of trade and rapid mass transit citizens of the world will truly reap the benefits of a globalized community.

In the near future we can easily provide affordable low cost solutions. Immediate measures can be taken to offer citizens and industry the mobility that is needed. Cities can start public programs to introduce more vehicles such as bicycles, busses, trains, planes, and boats into circulation.

All the roads will be smoothly paved and every pathway will be intuitively connected to offer a seamless nonstop transportation system. There will no longer be potholes or any unsafe roads. All roads will be ensured by the department of safety to be built according to 21st century code. All the pathways will all continue without dead ends and there won’t be any roads to nowhere.

People will no longer be packed like livestock into overcrowded busses and trains. In the future there will be busses running every minute and trains every five minutes. There will be an adequate fleet of vehicles that are required to safely transport the population at the busiest times. There will be public bicycles offered for rental and paved trails that connect throughout the cities. For motorized vehicles there will be free public garages so that people will no longer have to circle aimlessly for a parking space. There will be a free towing service so that if any vehicle breaks down it will immediately be towed to a repair shop and fixed.
